A sugar-phosphate backbone (alternating grey-dark grey) joins together nucleotides in a DNA sequence. The sugar-phosphate backbone forms the structural framework of nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA. This backbone is composed of alternating sugar and phosphate groups, and defines directionality of the molecule.The two strands run in opposite directions, one going in a 3' to 5' direction and the other going in a 5' to 3' direction. The nitrogenous bases are positioned inside the helix structure like "rungs on a ladder," due to the hydrophobic effect, and stabilized by hydrogen bonding.
Uracil is one of the four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of RNA that are represented by the letters A, G, C and U. The others are adenine, cytosine, and guanine. In RNA, uracil binds to adenine via two hydrogen bonds. In DNA, the uracil nucleobase is replaced by thymine. Uracil is a demethylated form of thymine.

Answer:
The correct answer is ''aids in the passive movement of water out of the tubule''
Explanation:
The nephron loop has a descending branch, which goes to the renal medulla, and an ascending branch, which goes back to the cortex. The nephrons of these kidneys can have loops of Henle of different dimensions. The thin segment of the loop has thin epithelial membranes, its cells are highly permeable to water, but not to solutes. The water that exits from the descending portion of the nephron loop into the medullary space is immediately reabsorbed by the peritubular capillaries, causing osmolality to increase in both the tubular fluid and the medullary interstitial fluid. The characteristics of the descending branch differ from one species to another, the normal thing is that in one way or another, the osmotic concentration of the urine that moves through it is balanced with that of the interstitial fluid.
Answer: Fungus like protists are heterotrophic and feed on organic matter.
Cellular slime mould is a species of fungus like protists that form slug.
Explanation:
Fungus like protists are heterotrophic and the feed on organic matter and mostly unicellular.
Cellular slime mould are protists belonging to class Dictyostelia. They are heterotrophic and decomposers that live on organic matter. When there is deterioration condition, the cells migrates together to form slugs and move to form new habitat. Some of the cells form stalk and others form spores.
